Super-Lightweight Laptops

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Dynabook Unveiled the 'Portégé X40L-K,' Which Weighs Only 2.3 Pounds

— March 4, 2022 — Tech
'Dynabook,' the consumer electronics corporation that was known as Toshiba from 1958 to 2018, has unveiled the 'Portégé X40L-K' ultra-lightweight laptop. This laptop weighs only 2.3 pounds in its entirety, meaning it is a competitor to weight-focused products such as the 'Macbook Air' and the 'LG Gram,' which are both incredibly light.

The Portégé X40L-K, though, boasts a durable body and high-performance components, despite its compact shell. The laptop contains a 12th-generation Intel processor, up to 32GB RAM, and a comprehensive I/O panel. The I/O panel means that numerous devices can be connected to it at one time through USB, USB-C, and Thunderbolt 4. The laptop has a relatively long-lasting battery at 65Wh, so it can last long enough for on-the-go commutes.

This laptop is excellent for traveling workers who do not want to add more weight to their everyday-carry setup. At a price point of $1,799.99 USD, this laptop fits into the premium, business-focused laptop market.
